 Rating: - Heroic!!!In the Shadow of the Moon is a great movie...is not a documentary...it will make you proud of those thousands and thousands of people that achieved the kennedy`s goal. To put a man on the moon. Rating: - Still Great After All These YearsIn the shadow of the moon is an accomplishment in that it holds one's attention even if one knows the outcome of the story. This always struck me as one of the great attributes of Ron Howard's "Apollo 13" in that we all knew what happened, to varying degrees of specificiality, and yet it was still dramatic and compelling.

We now all know they succeeded but it is easy to forget or take for granted the enormity - and dangers - of the task set before us. America galvanized behind John F. Kennedy's goal to land a man on the moon before the end of the 1960's decade. ...

Well written, directed and produced this movie has amazing footage that tickles the imagination. The backdrop for this drama was the cold war, Vietnam and a country going through major growing pains. The US space program was frequently the one bright unwavering beacon of hope through the turbulent 60s and early 70s. In all the time ... Read More |
